    Works great with our "Hey google" smart devices. We turn on the light in our Home Theater. Ready to got to bed, we turn our light on and then turn the light off in the Home Theater. Never walk in to a dark bedroom.

    Bought these with the frame of mind to install in ceiling fan. Took me a while to figure out how to get them all to work together and individually, but they are great. Even the wife uses it!

    Love these bulbs. I have them all through my home. Purchased these as replacements because of the sale price, But it seems like the original are still kicking strong. It's been well over a year and I haven't replaced any yet.

    First time to own the smart bulbs! I connected this product with the google home! It works flawlessly, however, I needed to download the GE app to start with instead of the google app. Very satisfied with the new product.

    They go on and they go off. Sometimes they don't turn off when you tell them to but just turning them of and on again fixes it

    The light bulb is smart. Smart as can be. Who knows how long it will last, because I returned it to BB. One day I may buy it again, when it's on sale. One thing is for sure, I wouldn't have it shipped by mail.

    My apartment doesn't come with a ceiling light fixture in the living room and bedroom so I purchased these to work with my mini google home and stand up lamps. Hoping that it would make the apartment brighter but nope, it's very dimmed even though its at 100%. I opt-in to buy regular light bulbs with higher lumens somewhere else. Unfortunately, I was not able to return these.
